The Sistema DIF Matamoros and the Union of Industrial Workers and Laborers of the Maquiladora Industry (SJOIIM) have taken an important step toward collaboration with a meeting aimed at reactivating programs to benefit workers and their families. This initiative, led by Ana Ariceaga de Granados, President of the DIF Board, María Elena Sánchez Cantú, General Director of the organization, and Juan Villafuerte Morales, General Secretary of SJOIIM, marks the beginning of joint efforts to support the Matamoros community.

A Meeting to Strengthen Collaboration

The meeting also included the participation of Alma Beas, President of the Health Commission; Georgina Reyes, Secretary; and Magda Eloísa Ávalos, President of the Labor Disputes and Strikes Commission. These key figures contributed to this important connection between the union and the Sistema DIF.

In his remarks, union leader Juan Villafuerte Morales highlighted the importance of working together with the Sistema DIF to implement programs that directly benefit workers and their families. Among the proposals, Villafuerte emphasized the need to reactivate medical and service brigades in various neighborhoods of Matamoros, as was done in previous years. These brigades have been essential in bringing healthcare and social assistance services to the communities that need them most.

Productivity and New Initiatives

The meeting with the Sistema DIF authorities was described as highly productive. Several projects and initiatives were discussed during the session, and implementation is expected to begin in the coming days. These actions aim not only to improve the quality of life for unionized workers of SJOIIM but also to positively impact their families and the Matamoros community as a whole.

The joint efforts between the union and the Sistema DIF focus on more than just the reactivation of medical brigades. They also include the creation of new social support and service programs tailored to the current needs of the population.

Final Reflection

The strengthened ties between the Sistema DIF Matamoros and SJOIIM serve as a clear example of how collaboration between organizations can generate a significant impact on the community. With the reactivation of medical brigades and the implementation of new programs, both institutions reaffirm their commitment to the well-being of workers and their families.

This alliance promises positive results in the short and medium term, setting a precedent for cooperation that will benefit the entire Matamoros community.
